I think I'll have to try that to understand properly;= but if you mean - you accidentally shorted against pins which you had swit= ched off visibility for... Not sure how to avoid that fully.

Perhaps need to separate the view controls a= little more. In my later 3D stuff (available on repo.or.cz), in 3D view turning off any layer also hides things lik= e copper pads on that layer.

OK, i see the Failure, but i will explain the situation.


Step by step:

1. create a new pcb.

2. Load a Jumper1 and place it to the board.

3. Take also some SMD-footprints an place it free over the board.

Now you wont draw a line in a (signal) middle layer, but the
SMD-Footprints are worry. Because this you make some layers invisible.

4. Now you make the pins/pads invisible. Or what?

But, you can not free draw the middle layer, because you have
collisions with footprints like Jumper1.
